What is arttherapy?Art therapy is the deliberate use of art-making to address psychological and emotional needs. Art therapy uses art media and the creative process to help in areas such as, but not limited to: fostering self-expression, create coping skills, manage stress, and strengthen sense of self. Credentialed art therapists have a masters degree in art therapy and extensive training and expertise in working with clients and media to facilitate growth, transformation and healing. Our artherapists attended the oldest art therapy masters degree programs in the country located in Washington, DC at the George Washington University and NYU in New York, New York. Art therapy has provided mental health treatment for clients who have experienced trauma, grief & loss, depression, chronic illness, substance abuse, and more (credit: Art Therapy Alliance).

Do I need to be able to draw to be in therapy with you?No. Clients express themselves both verbally and experientially. If you are interested in exploring various art media or art making processes to support your work and goals in therapy. We are skilled at supporting all clients, including those who self-identify as non-artistic.
